Song at 5:21. Does anyone know who its by?

Man...the way Joe & those guys talked about the Jets winning makes u tear up a little. Im not a Jets fan but that was a huge victory for em

C H I E F S 🏈

I love this documentary; the way football was supposed to be played.

49:03 Jim Brown says it all!

17:36 26:02 I really enjoyed this segment

Pete Rozelle was an awful human being.

This is why the modern NFL focuses more on the AFL/AFC, than the old NFL. Remember the NFL dates back to 1920, however, the modern league only goes back to the merger period, they don't cover anything before the first Super Bowl in January 1967. They cover the AFL back to it's beginning in 1960, but not the old NFL. It's because of the old racialism and white's only policy of the NFL from 1933 until 1946. That started with Washington's original owner and founder George Preston Marshall, however, other owners at the time supported him, they used the great depression and lack of opportunities as an excuse. Interestingly, the modern league now segregates whites to certain positions that the leagues thinks they are "equipped" to play. Times never change.

dan rooney is garbage

So the bengals paul.brown knew down the road his team would be a division rival of the browns.....but doest this video state that their was a ' marathon ' session to determine who the other 2 teams were whom were to.join the afl/ afc? so that must-have been all show. Makes me wonder

As soon as the Jets won the Super Bowl, Rozelle had it in for Namath.

I remember the Raiders playing at Candlestick back in 1961. There was no place for them to play except in San Francisco their first two years.

I think it was fair that Rozelle forced Namath to sell his stake in his restaurant because shady people were known to eat there. In fact that should be the case with every business. Like football games. I happen to know that there are plenty of unsavory characters frequent pro football games. He should've been forced to get rid of all the trans l teams who had those same people frequenting their games.

Rest in peace OJ...

Joe was that dude 😎

To bad the NFL blew the legacy they had built up when the players started kneeling during the National Anthem. Now the NFL can go to hell.

Peter Coyote was a great choice to do narration for this.

The Super Bowl competition now stands even at AFC-AFL 29 and the NFC-NFL 29. The AFC leads the NFC 30-16-8 in interconference regular season play winning 52% of the games.

Is it any wonder Frank Leahy had such a great coaching record? Every player on that squad had 100 years of eligibility!! Notre Dame players that played before the war came back and played for years after that. Also, Leahy's naval service during the Second World War allowed him to gain access to dozens of other players. Once their eligibility finally expired, Notre Dame's dominance waned. Another unfortunate aspect of this game was how lily white it was!! As great as Glenn Davis and Doc Blanchard were, they could hardly be compared to a Barry Sanders or Jim Brown. Or the top black performers at wide receiver or the defensive backfield. Both teams could not have possibly been as good, as if they'd been integrated. Take the best players of these teams and combine them with the best black athletes of that time. Then, you would have seen a brand of football that was truly untouchable.

😢murder mysteis

Who the fuck is Kelly J Byrne idiot 😒 has no clue what a football is ho#🎉 ⁰%%@mo

It's funny how Hunt and Murchison Are portrayed as good people. Both of them involved in the j f k killing

The NFL is all showbiz get it 😢

I think it must have been awesome to be Rex Ryan as a kid. To have a dad with a coaching job in pro football, and to have the opportunity to grow up immersed in the game…how in the hell could you not be a football man for life? Oh yeah, throw in tthe fact your dad revolutionized playing defense in the NFL too. Love or hate Rex Ryan, there’s no doubt the man could coach football.

Not one of the original ten AFL franchise has disbanded. Oh sure, the Raiders, Chargers and Texans/Chiefs have switched cities but they have all been around for the last 64 years.

curt gowdy was the best

one of the best docus i have ever seen. i would like to watch some full games if they are out there

Why no special DVD HD box set available for the series???...toss in a informative booklet and maybe a bonus DVD with interviews with many of former AFL greats...I'd buy it in a heartbeat.

I think Peter Coyote sounds a lot like Henry Fonda.

Pure ignorance in sports in the 60s!! We still have prejudice today!!

Today, don’t forget that AFL stands for the Australian Football League

Never forget the New England Patriots' "Pat Patriot" logo!!!

Too many privelaged athletes.

Thank you. This is Awesome ✌️😎🍿🤘

AFL until I die! What an EXCEPTIONAL era of professional football!!!

I'm quite curious: did the Kansas City Chiefs (with Abner Haynes), the AFC, and, by extension, the NFL ever make amends or recognize the African-American players who boycotted the 1965 all-star game? I have got to believe that some measure of recognition, even some form of monetary recompense after all of the participating players were blackballed out of the league within two years would have been appropriate. They made the ultimate career sacrifice during the prime of their playing lives. Just damned sad.

At 56:17 we see Don Shinnick, RLB of the Colts and a veteran of the late 50s championship teams, congratulating Namath for quite some time for a post-game handshake. He must have had a lot to say in admiration of Namath. And he might have been the only Colt who was not in shock. It was his last game.

I think it's shameful the KC's stadium isn't called Lamar Hunt Stadium. Shameful.

Any of you oldtime Wrestling fans see the great Wahoo McDaniels at around the 13:53 to 13:57 mark. There's a closeup of that big beautiful mug. I heard the Nature Boy say that Wahoo was released by the NY Jets because they couldn't afford to pay 2 Superstars 'cuz some cat Joe Willie was coming in from Alabama. Maybe someone heard of him.😏

As a kid, I learned a lot about football on television, but i learned a great deal listening to Hank Stram's commentary on national radio for Monday night football.

65 toss power trap

Jim Brown R.I.P

AFL until I die!!!

This video was outstanding, ty for the upload!

Just an observation. The 1966 Green Bay Packers had 9 black players contradicting the statement made by Michael McCambridge in this piece (even number for rooming purposes). Lombardi wanted winners! Those players were Wood, Jeter, Adderley, Aldridge, Davis, Pitts, Fleming, Robinson, and Brown. The following year, Lombardi’s Packers had 13 black men on their roster. Six of those players started on Vince’s defense. Vince was ahead of his time and another reason to respect this great coach.

One small correction: Garland Boyette was the first black middle linebacker in history. He played the position for the Houston Oilers in 1967, one year before the great Willie Lanier played the position for Kansas City in 1968.

Why did the NFL announce the AFL?

We’re about a year out from the election so it is about time for boat rockers & grifters.

The NFL Films Lost Classics is the best thing ever.

Money night football
